The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.

Freedom's Cap: The United States Capitol and the Coming of the Civil War

UPC 9780809046836 In Stock

As the majestic new Capitol rose, battles over slavery and secession were ripping the country apart. The Statue of Freedom was placed atop the Dome in 1863, five months after the Battle of Gettysburg. Architect Thomas Walter turned fiercely against all who had betrayed the Union. Engineer-in-charge Montgomery Meigs was Lincoln's quartermaster general of the Union Army.
